Lanterns

Lanterns 2023

Lanterns is Wildwood’s biggest festival and fundraiser of the year. Featuring food, drinks, and entertainment from around the world, this park-wide festival is fun for the entire family. Entirely volunteer led, Lanterns proceeds from lanterns support our grounds and educational programming, so that we can continue to provide our community with access to nature and the arts for years to come!
